Journal ArticleDOI
Associations of body composition trajectories with bone mineral density, muscle function, falls, and fractures in older men: the concord health and ageing in men project
David Scott,David Scott,Markus J. Seibel,Robert G. Cumming,Vasi Naganathan,Fiona M. Blyth,David G. Le Couteur,David J. Handelsman,Benjumin Hsu,Louise M. Waite,Vasant Hirani +10 more
TL;DR: Fracture risk may be increased in older men who lose higher lean relative to fat mass and weight loss interventions for obese older men should target maintenance of lean mass.
Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term topical timolol and blood lipids: the Blue Mountains Eye Study.
TL;DR: These population‐based data suggest that long‐term administration of topical timolol for glaucoma or ocular hypertension can cause adverse effects on HDL‐C in men, but not in women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alcohol consumption and tobacco smoking among community-dwelling older Australian men: the Concord Health and Ageing in Men Project.
Jenni Ilomäki,Danijela Gnjidic,David G. Le Couteur,J. Simon Bell,Fiona M. Blyth,David J. Handelsman,Robert G. Cumming,Markus J. Seibel,Louise M. Waite,Vasi Naganathan,Sarah N. Hilmer,Sarah N. Hilmer +11 more
TL;DR: To describe the prevalence and correlates of alcohol consumption and tobacco smoking among older Australian men, a large sample of men in their 60s and 70s were surveyed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Depression, Suicidal Behaviour, and Mental Disorders in Older Aboriginal Australians.
Yu-Tang Shen,Kylie Radford,Gail Daylight,Robert G. Cumming,Tony Broe,Brian Draper,Brian Draper +6 more
TL;DR: This study supports certain historical and psychosocial factors predicting later depression in old age, and highlights areas to target for prevention strategies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher-Impact Physical Activity Is Associated With Maintenance of Bone Mineral Density But Not Reduced Incident Falls or Fractures in Older Men: The Concord Health and Aging in Men Project.
Carrie-Anne Ng,David Scott,David Scott,David Scott,Markus J. Seibel,Robert G. Cumming,Vasi Naganathan,Fiona M. Blyth,David G. Le Couteur,Louise M. Waite,David J. Handelsman,Vasant Hirani +11 more
TL;DR: Older men who engaged in physical activity of high and rapid impact maintained higher BMD, while higher energy expenditure was associated with reduced falls risk, and coupling traditional physical activity data with bone loading estimates may improve understanding of the relationships between physical activity and bone health.
